ROCHESTER — A mother and her 1-year-old child were transported to the hospital for evaluation after being struck by a car on Union Street Friday.

At approximately 7:09 p.m., Rochester woman Elizabeth Keyes, 55, was driving out of Main Moon Restaurant onto Union Street, when she struck a mother walking in a sidewalk with her 1-year-old son, who was in a stroller, with her car.

Rochester resident Britny Adjutant, 22, and her young son, were walking east on a sidewalk on Union Street, a one-way street. Police Sgt. Patrick Emerson said both pedestrians suffered minor injuries, and were taken to the hospital for evaluation. They were expected to be released later on Friday night.

Emerson said due to the rain at the time, Keyes may have had poor visibility. He said Union Street is a one-way road, and the driver was appropriately making a right-hand turn. Because Keyes was likely looking to the left during the turn to check for traffic, it's possible she didn't see the pedestrians walking on the other side before turning onto Union Street, he said.

The 1-year-old boy is believed to have suffered a bump on his head, and his mother may have a knee injury, said Emerson.
